Australia Indonesia Association

The Australia Indonesia Association (AIA) was founded in July 1945, one month before Indonesia’s declaration of Independence. This makes the AIA one of the oldest established organisations in the world with an ongoing interest in Indonesia.

It was established for the encouragement of art, culture and literature, and to foster and promote friendship, understanding and good relations between the peoples of Australia and Indonesia.
